Lyrics
Rumpelstiltskin
By Steve Burdette & Randy Bishop (ASCAP)
©2022, Rokit Music
Yeah, he's comin' around,
Just to shake you down
Don't sell your soul when he offers you some gold
'Cause he'll take you to the cleaners
Make you think the grass is greener
Suck the life out of your party everyday
And in the middle of the night
He'll fill your dreams with fright
So listen to me children when I say....
CHORUS
Rumpelstiltskin
Go back where you've been
Hidin' under that rock outside of town
Rumpelstiltskin
You'd best be leavin'
Or else, you're gonna go down
V2.
That guy's just evil
Around since days medieval
Makin' deals and stealin' what he can
Yeah, he'll sneak into your tower
Try to take all of your power
Grab your jewels and maybe even your first born
And in the evenin' when you're sleepin'
He'll come in just creepin'
To steal all of your dreams, now you've been warned
Bridge
His trick is turnin' straw to gold
'Causin' pain and heartache
And even though he may be old
He's still a rattlesnake, yeah yeah
V3.
There's somethin' 'bout that name
Yeah, it sounds a bit insane
All a part of that guy's crazy game
It's hard to fly under the radar
When his name blinks like a pulsar
So just be smart and never look his way
'Cause when it comes to all my friends
I tell 'em not to let him in
Make him take his lousy deal some other place
Outro:
Yeah, you're gonna go down
Rumpelstiltskin
Yeah, Rumpelstiltskin
Go back where you belong
Get out of my home
"Get on outta here now!"
